Today (Thursday), people in Pakistan and on both sides of the Line of Control observed a “Black Day” to show their support for Kashmiris in Illegally Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (IIOJK).
In his message for the occasion, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif urged the international community to stop covering up Indian soldiers’ violations of human rights in IIOJK.
The Pakistanis, according to him, honour the Kashmiris and their sacrifices on this day, which is “a testament to the legendary bravery and tenacity of Kashmiris.
The Indian government won’t be able to stifle the Kashmiris’ fight for freedom, according to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.
“Pakistanis pay a beautiful tribute to Kashmiris today and promise to support them in their just battle. The world shouldn’t remain silent on Indian abuses of human rights in the heavily fortified valley of IIOJK. Freedom-seeking urges cannot be repressed for very long “the president penned.
“When India forcibly seized Jammu and Kashmir in 1947, it was unlawful, immoral, and celebrated as Black Day. This Day is a monument to the renown bravery & tenacity Kashmiris have displayed in defying the Indian occupation forces over the past 75 years.”
President Dr. Arif Alvi of Pakistan repeated Pakistan’s demand in his message for the illegal and unilateral acts taken by the Indian government on August 5, 2019, to be immediately reversed.
In order to hold India responsible for its gross human rights violations in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu & Kashmir, Dr. Arif Alvi encouraged the international community to take concrete action.
Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari also praised Kashmiris for their sacrifices made in the fight for their right to self-determination and reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to continuing to support Kashmiris in their fight.
He claimed that October 27th is the darkest day in Indian history, which began 75 years ago as the worst colonial power and dictatorship in the world.
On this day in 1947, Indian soldiers broke the terms of the partition plan by occupying Jammu and Kashmir.
The State was probably going to be a part of Pakistan because it had a majority-Muslim population and borders that bordered what would eventually become Pakistan. The state’s maharaja, however, made no preparations to ascertain the populace’s preferences for their political destiny. The native Kashmiris and tribals revolted when they learned of his intentions.
India was consulted by the maharaja. It is unclear if the Maharaja had signed any accession documents. There is evidence that Indian forces arrived in Srinagar before the maharaja could formally ratify the accession. Kashmiris protest against this unjust occupation of the state and observe October 27 as Black Day every year in Pakistan and other countries where they are from.
To send a clear statement to the world that they reject India’s unlawful occupation of the valley, Kashmiris on both sides of the Line of Control and around the globe observe Black Day.
The people in unlawfully controlled Jammu and Kashmir will observe a full shutdown and civic curfew on this day.
There will be protest marches, demonstrations, and conferences in Pakistan and overseas to denounce the Indian Army’s invasion of the region on October 27, 1947, as well as the Modi-led administration’s withdrawal of occupied Kashmir’s special status on August 5, 2019.
